Early Modern Times in Polish Historical Studies of Czech History and Polish-Czech Relations

Both Habsburg rule over the Czech lands (1526) and – after the Battle of the White Mountain – the loss of Czech state sovereignty, were reflected in Polish studies on Czech history. In principle the Czech lands were perceived as a part of Habsburg Monarchy. Thus previous Polish interest in Czech history and Polish-Czech relations in the 16th-18th centuries was limited and fragmentary. In consequence, it still lacks multilevel synthesis of Czech history and Polish-Czech relations in early modern times. As far as political history is concerned scholars usually focus on three groups of research problems: 1) the role and place of Czechs during the period of three free elections, 2) Czech uprising of 1618 and its Polish context, and 3) the Siege of Vienna. Better represented are Polish-Czech cultural relations, e.g. bilateral linguistic and literary influences, school and education contacts (Komenski), print book circulation, merging of Polish and Czech artistic currents and trends, religious impact of reformation and counter-reformation. Yet, there are still unacknowledged research problems that are worthy of interest.
